I didn't know that Anderson performed surgery on Demaryius Thomas' foot.

"Dr. Robert Anderson, an orthopedic surgeon for the Carolina Panthers, removed bone marrow from Thomas' hip and injected it into the area of the fracture, which was repaired with a pin. A few days after that, Thomas flew to Indianapolis for the Combine, hobbling his way around on crutches."

Will history repeat itself? ;)

Like I said in the draft forum, if the picks remain as they currently are, Bryant will be the only receiver taken in the first round.

Even then, some teams will make the safe pick at CB or OL, instead of risk the drama...

Sure, Braynt, Tate, and Thomas could all be gone by the end of the first... But this is a passing leage for most defenses, and there are a lot of teams in the mid to late first that would spring on a CB over a WR... Owens and a handful of role players are still floating around out there, whereas a lot of the DB FA well is now dry...

Even with his issues, someone will take a chance with Bryant if he slips down into the 20s imo.

The only thing that worries me is if guys like Tate, Thomas, and Benn ARE still around in the second, they'll be scooped up by the teams at the top fairly quickly. I don't even know if trading with KC would get us Thomas or Tate.

at this point, I am fairly certain it would... A lot of teams see the depth of the class and the talent that is going to be available early to mid third, and will address other needs first...

just my opinion, and I hope it holds true for the Panthers..

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
